"the declining evidentiary standards, shortening approval times, and increasing industry involvement in FDA decision-making, has led to distrust, not only of the agency, but in the safety and effectiveness of medicines, in general."

Add to this the generic drug fiasco (e.g. Bottle of Lies, K. Eban) and I find myself in the unsavory place of having to question/doubt both the evidentiary basis AND quality control of any pharmaceutical I ingest.

Thanks for covering this!

Dear Ms. Demasi, I am pharmacist from Slovenia (EU member state). This is one of the best articles I have ever read. Factual, correct and simple. Such articles are the hardest to write, because you have to know your subject very well and also have time to make it work. Excelent work! Yours sincerely, Mitja Ferlež
